They transition to highlights of last night's women's tag team turmoil and talk about the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match. Booker can't call a winner because they're evenly matched.

Rosenberg is going with Daniel Bryan, JBL says Roman Reigns, Booker says Roman Reigns, and The King says Daniel Bryan. No picks for Edge. That does it for the kickoff show!
